Legislative Notes.

The female suffrage bill under consideration
in the Senate yesterday provides for voting by
women at municipal and all other elections not
otherwise provided by the Constitution Of the
State.
When all the testimony regarding the south
ern prison management is in it is said the SEN
ate committees report Of which the Democrats
are boasting much, will lose great deal of its
worth as a resume of all the disgusting facts.
From statements of those who accompanied the
committee, 1t seems that only the surface items
were gathered.
The billie of Senator DeMotte passed by the
Senate yesterday amends the law relative to the
license of physicians This license is to be
granted only when the applicant presents to the
county clerk his diploma from medical college
which has been listed by the Board of Health as
reputable backed by his or her affidavit that he
or she is graduate. or when such applicant files

Senator Smith, from Jennings, seemed to con-
slider the vacancies in the standing committee on
benevolent institutions chance to advance Mr.
Branaman pace or two He was made chair
man of the committee, and following nard upon
the scene with the committeeman who resigned
it may be regarded an attempt at revenge on
Senator Rahm. The increase in the special COM
mittee to investigate the institutions afforded
another opportunity to recognize Mr.. Branaman
by appointing him of the two aauirional
committeeman. 1t is presumable that the Re-
publicans OF these two committees, not recog-
nizing Mr.. Branaman's right to serve as Senator,
will conclude to increase the list of designations.
Perhaps this is what the Democrats want in
order to delay the investigation of which they
boast SO stoutly.

Of this State, the executive committee
organized for the purpose of fur
thering that nomination, by all

General Nichols comes before

apology or defense.
Interested in the cultivation of
the soil, he knows the needs of his
fellow-citizens; engaged in agri-

In view of the confidence and
expectations that are engendered
by the booms throughout our coun-
try just at this time, many cities
and communities are mortgaging
their possessions in the hope that
the future will pay the debt. They
are pledging their credit to rail-
roads and other enterprises, which
stand all the chances Of profit,
while the taxpayers can hope for
little else than to have to pay the
extra taxes levied. The Wall
Street News raises warming voice
against such risky business, and
says that although it believes in
the future of the South, it will not
be built upon credit; that it does
not believe in the Sellers-like en-
thusiasm which sees millions in
the future if it can only borrow a
dollar for the present.
